Asked of me on Quora. 1/12/2022

“Which is better, happiness or success?”

If you pin your hopes on success to bring you happiness, success will make you happy….. for, on average, 4 or 5 months.
Then you may want more, another goal to reach for happiness.
This is called “grasping”. It’s a neverending trap.
All anyone really needs is just enough. True happiness comes from freedom. Freedom from grasping. Freedom from trying to control people or outcomes. Freedom from guilt and shame about the past. Freedom from anxiety, worry about the future. Freedom from self depreciation. The freedom of accepting ourselves, life, and others just as they are.
That’s where happiness is found. It’s within you and always available.
